Default Engine shuts off,

I have a problem with my 91 honda accord 2.2i , the engine shuts down, for a few seconds then it starts again.

I have been having this problem for a few months now, In the beginning, it just happend sometimes, but it only getting worst it happends all the time now.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Default RE: Engine shuts off,

From your description, you may have a failing Main Fuel Relay (MFR). A search (if it's working) will turn up lots of previous help and guidance. Check DIY section.

If you can't hear the fuel pump turn on for 2-3 when you first turn keyswitch to ON, MFR is likely. It could be a keyswitch issue, but if instrument panel lights are coming on properly this is not the problem.

good luck
